I'm off to the gym and since I don't eat breakfast I've just had a 'special K' bar with 90j or something energy in it. Is that alot for a little bar and an hours workout or not?
Also, when i'm working out, if my heart rate is between 100-150 thats fat burning and if my heart rate is over 150 thats cardiovascular. Is that right?
As you can see i'm new to the gym!

Yup..tho it has to be done. Can't be wasting no wine (or waiting til he's finished eating either)
On the chart at the gym, it says that if you work out at a higher intensity it's about 85%.

Very true, you only need look at sprinters to see this.
These people build power and train to work at pretty much as close to 100% effort for a short period of time, yet they have little to no fat on them.
Could go into long-term and short-term fat stores and stuff too, but...meh?
I will say that those percentages are for the average person.
If the average person works-out at 60% of their max heart rate they can go for long enough to burn a fair few calories and fat off. If they work-out at 80% they are unlikely to go for very long at all.

What if someone wanted to know? you'd be depriving them. Do you want that on your conscience?
I'll leave Mr Bite to type it.
Musta been a long day, what with ur bad spelling and bad jokes

> I don't like the tread mills in the gym so I've decided to do stretches at home, then walk to the gym as a little work out. Good eh?
So the gym is just a sort of turnaround point, then?
I'd use a newsagents or something.
